Battle Royale 4K 2000 JAPANESE DC

General impression: As a result of the economic crisis, the population of Japan lost their jobs - part of the totalitarian state of the Great East Asia. Students are boycotting schools. In response, the government is launching an educational project called Battle Royale, in which schoolchildren are forced to participate at gunpoint. On an uninhabited island, 42 high school students will mercilessly destroy each other for three days using random objects and ingenuity. Only one will return alive from the island.

Doesn't it look like anything? Of course, "The Hunger Games", but I doubt that anyone even knows about the "Battle Royale", if so, then very well! Unlike the snotty "Hunger Games", this picture is bloodier and harsher, and came out much earlier. Especially based on the novel by Kosyun Takami, I think it's clear where Susan Collins got the basis from. The streams of blood flow in the tape, so the faint of heart shouldn't look, it's not for nothing that Tarantino's list of the best tapes, but what a twisted plot!

In addition to survival, 42 classmates talk about life, morality, and conscience. Some begin to suspect each other, others try to settle the conflict and come to peace, and still others try to survive at any cost, scattering classmates to the right and to the left. They are dying like flies.

The characters that appear in the film are necessarily revealed, some superficially, others deeper, but there is definitely a division of students, everything from nerds to hooligans.

It is unforgettable that this is Japanese cinema, so in some moments you can see a replay, but this is typical for their culture, especially since the main part of the picture is made up of young people. But if the faces are not familiar to you, then you will definitely recognize one actor - Takeshi Kitano.
